Abstract

This paper reviews the mathematical and experimental work published on the subject, which has some interesting and unexpected peculiarities and presents fresh data. For the discharge through nozzles, a formula is derived having a logical physical basis and agreeing closely with all the experimental data. For the flow in pipes, experimental data is presented giving discharges greater than calculated from simple thermodynamic theory, and explanation is found in the fact that the water and steam in the flashing mixture flow at different velocities.
